Hi Mali. It's a Bald eagle juvenile as you suspect. Big beak, dirty mottled underwings and general appearance. Baldies and Goldies are pretty similar in size so looking massive doesn't really swing it either way.

Edit - cross posted with Andrew.
 
Yes, 3cy Bald Eagle (I think the age is correct)

(oops apologies answered phone in the middle of responding before any one else had and ended up cross posting with everyone! 😏)
 
Ah, I did not realize that although I'm sure you mentioned it when I met up with you when you were last here.
